Chapter: CHAPTER 11The dress was a flowing cloud white gown, with a beautiful v neck cut , designed delicately with white pearls. The strap of the dress was delicately placed down her shoulder, highlighting her neckline. She looked beautiful in the dress and everyone knew it. They stared at her in awe. It was like the dress was designed specifically for her. The dress highlighted her features and made her look exquisite. Ryan who was still staring at Lia in the gown was startled when he heard Lily's voice“How does it look sir?” Lily asked staring at him with a smile as usual.“um, whatever she wants” Ryan replied as he changes his attention back his phone. Lily turned to look at Lia worried that Ryan’s indifference would hurt her, but Lia didn’t look affected by this at all. “Do you like it ma’am?” Lily asked. “Yes, it’s beautiful,” Lia replied with a smile. She liked the dress so much. She had never worn a dress that looked so beautiful before. “I’ll pick this one” Lia told her“ok ma’am , after

Chapter: CHAPTER 10 The house was about three floors tall. The exterior looked exquisite and Lia knew that the interior would not be any less. The house looked like what you would see at a resort. It was simply magnificent. Lia was escorted inside, which was far more beautiful than Lia imagined It would be. The house was filled with sunlight as the windows were made completely of glass. She wondered how it would look at night. She wouldn’t have guessed that Ryan would like things like this. But then she remembered his office which also had a huge glass window. It seems like Ryan liked the sunlight ,which was completely the opposite of what Lia had in mind for how his house would look like. She thought his house would be all dark and mysterious, like he was , but it was the complete opposite. She took a quick walk around and saw different people who she guessed were workers walking around, each one greeting her with a bow. This was something she was not used to but she knew she had to get used to it. She

Chapter: CHAPTER 9 Lia woke up with another headache, this one worse than the last. She stayed up most of night still trying to process the news that Ryan told her. She knew that she would eventually have to move in with him, but it came sooner than she hoped It would. Everything was happening so suddenly. The marriage, moving in. It made her feel nauseous. She went to the bathroom to wash her face. Looking at her reflection in the mirror, her face looked so rough. She quickly took her bath and dressed up to go out for breakfast. She also had to figure out a way to explain the news to Kelly. She knew that she could not leave her sister alone in the house.After dressing up, she reached for her phone and saw a message from Ryan, telling her he’ll be coming to pick her up by noon. Which means she had a few hours to explain the situation to Kelly. She quickly went out to meet Kelly. She went to the dining room but she didn’t see Kelly , just her breakfast which Kelly he’d prepared for her. Seeing that Ke

Chapter: CHAPTER 8Lia woke up with a hammering headache. She winced as she dragged herself out of the bed, her head was about to explode. She walked out to see her sister making breakfast and a smile appeared on her face, she just stood there, stared at Kelly and appreciated her inwardly. Kelly had been trying her best not to make Lia feel their parents' absence. Despiteher condition, she kept on doing her role and helping in the way she can. Kelly was busy on the stove, stiring what looked like porridge. Lia walked to her and hugged from behind, startling Kelly. “Don’t do that again, please!” Kelly pleaded loudly as her heart thumped faster.“Sorryyyy,” she pouted “My head hurts” Lia wailed “Why did you drink so much then?” Kelly asked, serving the porridge into a bowl and handed to Lia“Eat this and take some pills, hopefully it'll be down by afternoon”.Lia collected the bowl of hot porridge with gratitude and sat at the table eating. “So have you decided when you want to get married?” Kelly asked

Chapter: CHAPTER 7The dress that Kelly chose was a short, sky blue, above-the-knee gown with black stiletto heels and a black bag. She looked just as good as she did on the first meeting just that this time her dressing and makeup were done by her sister, which made Lia very happy. Lia was busy making finishing touches to her makeup when she heard a car honk just like the last time. It was Ryan who had come to pick her up but this time he came with his driver. She got in the car and they drove off to the restaurant Ryan grandfather had booked for their dinner. They got to the restaurant and Lia was surprised at how they were attended, only for her to realize that Ryan’s grandfather had booked the entire Upper room for them, meant for VIPs. She and Ryan arrived first and they were led to their table. They sat down and waited in an awkward silence. As usual Ryan broke the silence, “You picked a good dress, it looks good”Ryan complimented her. Lia was a bit taken aback by the sudden compliment but compo

Ryan had saved her from her ex-boyfriend, Jake , and called her his wife. He dropped her off at home. “Thank you so much sir” Lia mused in a tiny voice, embarrassed that Ryan had to witness such an incident. “it's no problem, go in and get some rest” Ryan replied in an indifferent tone“ yes,but why were you at my workplace” she inquired “ah, my grandfather asked me to drop something off for you, he was very happy to hear that we had already registered our marriage,” Ryan explained and opened the rear door to bring out several bags containing different types of clothes, shoes and bags “oh no I can't accept this , it's too much!” Lia said, shaking her head “he insisted that you should” Ryan signaling his driver, who carried the bags to the door of the house“he also proposed another dinner tomorrow night to discuss officiating our wedding”“officiating?” Lia said conf
